After You've Gone

Now listen, honey, while I say

How could you tell me that you gone away?

Don't you say that we must part

While you won't break my aching heart?

You know I loved you true for many years

Loved you night and day

How can you leave me?

Can't you see my tears,

And listen at me while I say?

After you've gone

Left me crying

After you've gone

Ain't no deny

You feel blue

You gon' feel sad

You'll miss the best lovin' you ever had

And there come a time

Don't you forget it

There come a time

When you'll regret it

Someday when you grow lonely

Your heart gon' break like mine

You gon' want me only

After you've gone

After you've gone away

After you've gone

After we break up

After you've gone

You sure gon' wake up

You gon' find that

You were blind

To let somebody come around and change your mind

After the years we've been together

Through dawn and tears

All kind of weather

Someday, blue and down-hearted

You wanna be with me

Right back where you started

After you've gone

After you've gone away

Yeah

After you've gone

After you've gone away
